Screen Flips Upside down
So let me state this before I get flamed. Ive tried updating my Drivers for my Graphics card 5 different times but to no avail. Ive gone through all the in game settings and changed them around with no luck. Ive re booted my computer and freed up some more memory hoping that that was the problem but it wasn't. No matter what I try to do, the screen stays permanently flipped. If I could get some help that would be greatly appreciated! Smile

Specs:
ON A LAPTOP:

ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 - Graphics card
4GB Ram
250GB Storage

If any other specs are needed I will supply them!
Thank you!

I think, Laptops have the ability to move their screen.


Try Pressing Ctrl+ Arrow Key
Or Alt+ Arrow Key.

(If they dont work try Ctrl and Alt at the same time)
I dont know excactly which one it was. But i know it's one of these Big Grin

Is Amnesia only flipped or your desktop too? What laptop do you have(the name) and what operating system are you running? Today I just helped another guy solve the problems he had in Amnesia on a laptop with the exact same card. It was a problem of drivers. Check the whole thread here or just the solution in the link below:

He had a problem with a gpu driver related dll called atioglxx.dll

@Jens
I got the Drivers from the ATI site, and I tried searching for new drivers from
Control Panel --> Device Manager --> Update Device Drivers --> Device Manager --> Display Adapters --> ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 --> Update Driver.

@Laser50
Thanks for the tip, but the screen flip is only supported on certain drivers, and windows xp, so unfortunatley not mine, thanks anyways!

@plutomaniac
I only have it downloaded on my laptop as my Desktop is from like 1995 and wouldnt be able to even open the web page to start the download.. I am running Windows Vista on a Dell Studio 17

Thanks to everyone!

If your Laptop is from 1995 you should probably get a new one.. Laptops changed.

RE: Screen Flips Upside down
when I said desktop I meant the desktop of your laptop with the icons etc... not your desktop computer. Anyway, since you are trying to update your drivers in a completely wrong way download the above and you should be able to play afterwards:

Windows Vista/7 x86(32-bit):

Do you have a laptop or desktop.
Are you sure your graphic card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650, because it isn't from 1995.
